Day 1938

Sep 11, 2010 19:44

Well I have made some progress on the cabinet doors- four of them are stained and glued where they need to be- I'm waiting on the stain to cure before I polyurethane them. Only four instead of all 12 because it's been raining on and off here- that and I don't have enough stain- this plywood is drinking it up like mad. However, slow and steady wins the race and I'm moving on it- abet slowly.

I also fixed the clock in the living room. It is now silent and keeps good time which is a vast improvement!

Household chores are almost done for the weekend so I'll have more time to spend on the cabinets and get some quilting in- woodworking and quilting does not mix well as hands have to be carefully cleaned after one before picking up the other!

I think I have found the coffee table I want on Etsy- I found two, as a matter of fact. The choice is now do I want the 17" table or the 10" table? I like the 10" table better but I do wish it was taller!


or

Thoughts, anyone?

I've also got the stripper to refinish the kitchen table and chairs- I still want the Serenity chairs but it looks like I'll have to have them custom made and that's going to run into money which I don't need to spend just now. And a new sofa... and a new TV mounted on the wall. *sigh* I sometimes feel like this is never ending! I wish I had enough money to just go and get everything done and have it all finished.
